Police say a 6-year-old boy has been critically wounded during a possible attempted carjacking on Detroit's east side.

Police say the boy was in a car Sunday night with an adult when two men approached and fired shots. The child was hospitalized.

Police say the father was grazed in the shooting.

The shooting is the latest involving a child in Detroit. On Jan. 31, a 12-year-old girl was shot and killed through the door of her home following a dispute that didn't involve her. On Feb. 20, a 9-month-old boy was fatally shot at a home.
